Motherhood and Flu Season

As a mom I worry and stress over cold and flu season. I worry about the sleepless nights with a three year old up coughing. I worry about my toddler with viral induced asthma, and the possibility of taking him to the hospital. To take some of the worry and stress away, I make sure I am prepared.

As soon as I hear that first sniffle, I am sure to get our the vitamin C, elderberry, and stock up on Kleenex at Walmart! Whether I pick it up in store or order with two-day shipping, Walmart makes it easy for us to stock up on Kleenex. This makes my life so much easier, which is vital when dealing with a sick household!

If you’ve ever wiped a toddlers nose, you know it’s equivalent to torture to them. They’ll turn their head, scream and push your hand away as soon as you come near them with a tissue. This is why I use the worlds softest tissue on the little noses at our house. It’s still not their favorite, but at least it’s gentle and keeps their noses from getting raw.

I also love that they have the anti-viral tissues. Since I’m the one wiping noses all day, It gives me piece of mind that I am doing all that I can to keep the illness from spreading.

It’s so convenient that you can stock up with the amazing deals on Kleenex at Walmart, plus they offer two day shipping. If a cold sneaks up on your family and you don’t have time to get to the store, two day shipping is a serious life saver. Walmart makes it so easy to order online and get exactly what you need delivered to your doorstep!

Cold or not, Kleenex is great to have around the house. To wipe away tears, for those pesky boogers that toddlers always seem to have, and to just be prepared for any illness that may arise.

Don’t forget to take care of yourself this flu season, so you can take care of others. Whether it’s taking the stress out of shopping, using anti-viral tissue, or making nose wiping easier with soft tissue…. don’t forget self care! The little things can make a huge difference as a mom!

About Me

Hi there, I am Ashley, blogger at Mommy on the Mound, mom to two boys and wife to my high school sweetheart. Thanks so much for visiting my blog! Jesus has and always will be the center of our marriage and family. My husband played professional baseball in the NY Mets and Minnesota Twins organizations for 5 years, which is where I got the name of my blog. God led us on many adventures during those times, including cross country road trips, living in apartments with an air mattress, and Greg missing the birth of our first son. It also allowed us to grow strong in our marriage, meet some amazing life-long friends, and share a cool experience with our first born! We are settled down in the beautiful PNW now where my husband coaches baseball and I blog while I raise my two little boys. Before I became a mom and started blogging I was a special education teacher. Education is something I will always love! In the summer you’ll find us out hiking or watching Greg’s summer baseball team!
